A group of devoted England fans, who traveled to Mexico for the 1986 World Cup and chose to stay abroad, are set to reunite 40 years later at this summer's tournament in North America. Among them is Garry Hardwicke, who famously told his partner he was just stepping out to buy milk before embarking on a life-changing adventure. The group, known as The Disco Firm, consisted of childhood friends from Stourbridge and Lye in Worcestershire, who all lost their jobs and decided to follow the Three Lions on their World Cup journey. Instead of returning home after the tournament, they settled in the US, where they built new lives and families, collectively raising 14 children. They will gather to watch England's opening match against Croatia in Dallas on June 17. Gary Allen, one of the fans, expressed optimism about England's chances of winning the World Cup, noting that this year's team is the strongest in years. Their remarkable story will be documented in 'Lost Down Mexico Way,' showcasing their unique journey and enduring friendships.
